Abstract

Disclosed is a method for preparing biological valve material by means of double-bond polymerization after aldehyde crosslinking, as well as the biological valve material and use therefor. The preparation method includes: step S 110, contacting the biomaterial with an aldehyde-based crosslinking agent solution for crosslinking; Step S 120: soaking the biomaterial processed in Step S 110 in a solution containing a first functional monomer for reaction to introduce first carbon-carbon double bonds; wherein the first functional monomer has first carbon-carbon double bonds and an epoxyethane group; and Step S 200 , performing polymerization of the carbon-carbon double bonds under an action of an initiator to obtain the biological valve material. In this disclosure, double bonds are introduced into the glutaraldehyde crosslinked biological valve material, and polymerization of the double bonds is further initiated, improving the stability of the glutaraldehyde crosslinked material and further reducing the risk of calcification caused by structural degradation.
